Description Miro Hrončok 2018-10-01 11:35:10 UTC
In line with the Mass Python 2 Package Removal [0], the following (sub)packages of libkolab were marked for removal:

 * python2-kolab

According to our query, those (sub)packages only provide a Python 2 importable module. If this is not true, please tell us why, so we can fix our query.

Please remove them from your package.

As said in the change document, if there is no objection in a week, we will remove the package(s) as soon as we get to it. This change might not match your packaging style, so we'd prefer if you did the change. If you need more time, please let us know here.

We hope this doesn't come to you as a surprise. If you want to know our motivation for this, please read the change document [0].

Comment 2 Timotheus Pokorra 2019-01-16 07:52:05 UTC
I have it on my todo list to retire the package libkolab completely. It does not build anymore for a long time, and libkolabxml replaces it to some degree.

see the comments at bug 1518800

Comment 3 Miro Hrončok 2019-01-16 08:36:34 UTC
Thanks. Let me know if/how I can help.

Comment 4 Timotheus Pokorra 2019-01-16 11:04:10 UTC
I have now retired the package libkolab, it is obsoleted by libkolabxml.
I hope it worked.
